OUR NATIONAL OPERA.

The financial troubles of the National
Opera Company, which, notwithstaud-
ing It's big receipts, appear to be of
periodical recurrence, are nlltibutei by
the american lNusictda to its enormous
expenses. l, SAYS:
The salary Cf Mr.. Thpma' Is said TO be $1,000
week. that Of Mr. Candidus an equal
amount. and that uf Mr. Lnpke $3.50 week.
To help Themselves o such enormous salarlo,
while appealing 10 pablo supper. on the
sentimental ground of patronzlng American
art shows concusiyrly thai they looked upon
the enterprise as big, lat goose, to be
plucked while there was feather left on its
body. Patriotic Americans will
not place al y reliance on the pati iotic pro-
fessions of those who charge five times the
value Of their vice, IN hard cash while pre-.
tenoing 10 be Influenced by considerations of
art.
In other words. American opera to
be made n success, must he sung by
big artists on email pay, which is not
In accordance with human nature. II
Mr.. Candidus, for instance, can com.
mand a thousand dollars week, he
will sing where he can get that sum.
1t is not probable that any sentiment of
patriotism will ever induce him to sing
for Mrs. Thurber's enterprise at $500
or $500 o week If he can make more
elsewhere.
Our great artists, unfortunately for
art, as we have often thought, are not
built that way.
AS rule they are gras"' d
mercenary.
There Is something heroic in Mrs.
Thurber's indomitable energy under
discouraging circumstances, and her
confidence In the future of Musical
America" approaches the sublime; but
success I,ust be made in some way to
depend, not on guarantee funds, but
on establishing such proportion be-
tween the estimated receipts OF the
opera and the cost of Its production, as
will leave margin for profits and
avoid the humiliation of unpaid hotel
bills, litigation for over due salaries,
loans for railroad transportation and
the clamor of the chorus for its small
W'ShiN S'ipSAuo'
Possibly change of management is
the great thing nocdful. The public
need to be assured that the enterprise
Is run on business principles, as well as
on its artistic merits, ms n condition
precedent to their patronage and sup.
port.
ANOTHER American opera company
In distress has been beard from; this
time In Mexico. The causes of the col.
lapse are not given in detail, but, ac.
cording to Mr.. Bird, the manager. his
company was p0unced upon by the
authorities at Del Norte and thrown
into prison, whence they were only re.
leased after sufTering severe priyaions,
four deaths from smallpox and the loss
of all their property. Whether It Was
the want of funds whcrewith to pay
their bills, or the quality Of the music
which they produced, that led to. this
shameful treatment is not stated, but It
is to be hoped that no steps will be left
untaken by the American Government
10 get at the truth of the story and see
that proper reparation is made for any
wrong that may have been inflicted,
American opera must be protected at
all hazards.

PITTsBURG, April LII or long
time past the Panhandle railroad
Company has been the victim of sys.
tematic robberies Of its freight cars,
the stealings footing up at least 5000

ing trains were broken open and goods
stolen, including every description OF
merchandise Detectives were EN-.
ployed and in August last a clue was
obtained. This was worked up, and it
was found that the r0bberies were
committed by conductors and brake
men on the road. Nearly all the
crews of every freight train coming
into Pittsburg were found to be engag-
ed in the stealing.
Warrants were issued as soon as it
was settled who the guilty parties
were, and it was decided to make all
the arrests simultaneously, if possible
The first arrests were made about
o'clock this morning, the police sur
